I'd really love for Kevin to send the dyno pitch as well.

Pure joy. Pitch 15 finally went down after 11 attempts over 7 days. Riding high, I stuck the dyno on Pitch 16, but fell in the corner right above the no hands stance. Back to finish that tomorrow.

Fucking brilliant!

Great report and pics.

Sweet.

If the film that comes out from this is even halfway decent I'll be in tears too when he hits that belay.

Bring on the big push to the the top.

Great report and photos.

Go ahead and discuss, but if you want to know the latest state of play just go and look at those five links, you can't get any more up-to-date than those and everything else is just an echo.

Another useful and informative link that has already appeared in this thread...

Life with the Caldwells - some updates from Tommy's wife.

Evenings Sends has summarised the facts in two posts, including interviews...

Jorgeson now on Wino Tower.

Amazing.

I'm really interested to see what's in store for caldwell after this, young family and all that so I suspect he'll probably kick back a little while.

What's amazing in Patagonia that's still to be done?

I was also musing about the style of this the other day. However this gets done initially, it doesn't really matter as it will give real context to an unsupported ascent where a future wad frees this in a day. Imagine that.
